March Waterfowl Madness

Join us in search of early spring migrants, especially waterfowl. Large numbers and a variety of waterfowl are possible, including swans, five species of geese, dabbling ducks, diving ducks and mergansers, and other spring migrants.

Sightings will depend on the status of migration, location, and weather conditions. The destination location to be determined. Bring binoculars if you have them. Spotting scopes are helpful, but not necessary. All levels of birding experience are welcome.

Accessibility: Limited amount of walking expected, though some portions of walk may be on uneven terrain depending on location. Viewing from a car may be possible at some locations.

Directions: Meet at the Hwy 41 and Hwy 76, Green Valley Road Park and Ride. From here we will drive to the birding location that offers the best chance to see waterfowl and other early migrants.
